Iran war not to end soon? Treasury's Bessent says US has 'plenty of money to fund this war'

Scott Bessent, US Treasury Secretary, stated that the United States has sufficient funds to support its war against Iran. He defended President Donald Trump's actions under the War Powers Act and emphasized that the administration is seeking supplemental funding for military operations and stockpiling weapons. Pete Hegseth, US Secretary of War, confirmed the Pentagon's plan to request additional funding from Congress. The escalating conflict began on February 28th following joint US-Israeli strikes on Iran, leading to retaliatory attacks by Tehran.
